✦ In 24 hours Halcyon Daze Store will be at our first vintage market. If you’re local to the Bournemouth area or fancy coming down we’ll be showing at the exciting new ‘Night Market’ venture from the @southcoastmakersmarket crew. An evening of vintage & retro stalls, good food, drinks and plenty of laughs. Come shop, say hello and support part of your local independent business community. Here’s a taste of what we’ll have on offer from our tester set up day, plus lots more goodies - we’ll be sharing what doesn’t sell over on the website / IG after the market. 5PM - 9PM The loading dock, Avenue lane, BH2 5LS (the back of the old Marks and Spencer’s building) - Entry is free! We can't wait to see you there!! ✦

A forgotten reel from lunch with the Mother in Law! Using our Vintage Fosters Dessert Plates and our Birds Nest bowls to look like I made a massive effort for Peach's and Ice Cream! Check out the products tagged!

✦ The Garden Party Collection has landed ✦ We’ve been praying to the sun gods to treat us kind and we’ve been gratefully soaking up every moment they’ve given us! Have you? The new Garden Party Collection is full of treats ready for you to be the host with the most for your nearest and dearest whether that’s in the garden or in the house. Featuring our first larger pieces of furniture such as a cane two seater sofa, bamboo side tables & a dark cane glass coffee table all the items both big and small have been hand selected with love and we hope you love them too! 🧡

✦ When you have bare walls sometimes you just dont know what to put on them, art, family photos, wall plates, hangings, macrame..there's so many choices!! At the moment my recently converted kitchen has bare walls..for a massive trinket fan this is super hard..but what I'm slowly doing is collecting pieces, picking up bits here and there, some expensive, some not and once I have it all I'm going to spend some time deciding where each piece will go. (It's the best bit ☺️) Now if you have a statement piece like this absolutely stunning Brass wall hanging/plate the rest is easy!! Brass goes with anything, muted tones, bright neons, it somehow shines no matter where you put it. The best bit is that brass develops a darker aged patina over time and if you don't like it, just shine her up with Brasso. Whats also so good is you can take off the wall any time and use as a serving tray! We love a multi use item!!✦ She's ready and waiting for a new home, click the link to read more.

Now my garden isn't that glamouress but I can always find some leaves, weeds, ferns and flowers to out in a vase. Today I've chosen this pretty Pastel Pink vase from the @halcyondazestore stock room. How fab does the Purple, Pink and Green go together! This vase isn't in a collection as yet, but if you fancy taking her home just holla and we will send her out to you!

✦ A clown held a door open for me the other day. I thought, “what a nice jester” 🥁✦ This unique 1950’s peridot clown lamp has just been added to the website. It’s in gorgeous peach and cream tones and would look amazing in the home of a collector of all things unique but equally sweet in that perfect vintage nursery. So, are you a clown lover or a clown loather? 🤡

✦ COL: EIGHT has landed! ✦ As always, we’re so happy to get it out there to you and we can’t wait to see what your favourite pieces are 🧡
